Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a container data center.
- FIG. 1 is an exploded, isometric view of an embodiment of a container data center, wherein the container data center includes a plurality of supporting apparatuses.
- FIG. 2 is an exploded, isometric view of one of the supporting apparatuses of FIG. 1 .
- FIG. 3 is an isometric view of the assembled container data center of FIG. 1
- an embodiment of a container data center includes a container 300 , two spaced cabinets 10 arranged in the container 300 , and a pair of supporting apparatuses 20 installed between the cabinets 10 .
- Each cabinet 10 includes a top wall 12 and a bottom wall 13 opposite to the top wall 12 .
- a pair of first shockproof devices 14 is mounted to the underside of the bottom wall 13
- a pair of second shockproof devices 16 is mounted to the top of the top wall 12 .
- the side of the top wall 12 of each cabinet 10 which is closest to the other cabinet 10 defines two fastening holes 122 .
- One or more servers may be installed in each cabinet 10 .
- Each first shockproof device 14 includes a H-section support 142 and a first shockproof member 144 .
- the support 142 is made up of a long bottom plate 143 , a long top plate 141 parallel to the bottom plate 143 , and a connecting plate 147 perpendicularly connected between the centers of the bottom plate 143 and the top plate 141 .
- the top plate 143 defines two fixing holes 145 , to one side of the connecting plate 147 .
- the first shockproof member 144 is made of shockproof material, such as plastic or rubber.
- the first shockproof member 144 is a bar, substantially equal in length to the top plate 141 .
- the first shockproof member 144 defines two through holes 146 .
- Each second shockproof device 16 includes a long second shockproof member 162 , a long latching block 164 , two screws 166 , and a plurality of nuts 168 .
- the second shockproof member 162 is made of shockproof material, such as plastic or rubber.
- Two through holes are defined at the ends of the second shockproof member 162 .
- the stepped hole 163 has a large diameter at the bottom of the second shockproof member 162 , and a smaller diameter at the top of the second shockproof member 162 .
- Two through holes are defined at the ends of the latching block 164 .
- the length of the latching block 164 is substantially equal to the length of the second shockproof member 162 .
- Each screw 166 includes a head 167 extending from one end of the screw 166 .
- the large diameter portion of the stepped hole 163 is slightly larger than the diameter of the head 167 .
- each supporting apparatus 20 includes an operation member 22 , two connecting members 24 , and two fastening members 26 .
- the fastening members 26 are eye bolts, wherein the lower portion is threaded (bolt 262 ) and the upper portion is an unbroken ring (annular operation portion 264 ).
- Each operation member 22 is a bar, and includes a tubular operation pole 222 , and an inner-threaded fixing portion 224 fixed in each end of the operation pole 222 .
- One the fixing portion 224 defines a right hand thread, and the other fixing portion defines left hand thread.
- the fixing portions 224 function as nuts, and the axes of the nuts are coaxial with each other.
- Each connecting member 24 includes a bar-shaped connecting plate 242 and a connecting pole 244 mounted on top of the connecting plate 242 .
- the connecting plate 242 includes a fastening portion 246 at one end, and the fastening portion 246 defines a through hole 248 .
- the connecting pole 244 is mounted on the other end of the connecting plate 242 , and the length of the pole 244 which is not in contact with the connecting plate 242 is threaded, to suit a portion 224 .
- the joint between the connecting pole 244 and the connecting plate 242 is permanent.
- the support 142 is fixed on the bottom of the container 300 .
- the first shockproof devices 14 are mounted to the bottom of the bottom wall 13 . Screws extend through the through holes of bottom wall 13 , the through holes 146 , and the fixing holes 145 , to be screwed into the corresponding nuts. Thereby, the first shockproof devices 14 are mounted on the bottom of the bottom wall 13 .
- the heads of the screws 166 are sunk in the large diameter portion of the stepped holes 163 and the screws 166 extend through the second shockproof member 162 , the through holes 165 , and the nuts 168 , to be screwed into the top of the container 300 .
- An airflow channel 124 is formed between the cabinets 10 .
- the second shockproof member 162 can be made to abut the top wall 12 by adjusting the length of the screws 166 through the top of the container 300 .
- each supporting apparatus 20 In assembling each supporting apparatus 20 to the cabinets 10 , the connecting pole 244 of the connecting member 24 is screwed into a connecting portion 224 .
- the connecting members 24 are respectively rotated to adjust the length of the supporting apparatus 20 , allowing the through holes 248 to align with the two corresponding fastening holes 122 of the cabinets 10 .
- the bolts 262 extend through the through holes 248 , to be screwed into the fastening holes 122 .
- the supporting apparatus 20 is thus connected between the top walls 12 of the cabinets 10 , across the airflow channel 124 , to lock the cabinets 20 laterally in pairs, preventing any fore and aft movement of the cabinets 20 and increasing the resistance of the pair to shocks and vibration.
